#taste with @sammelier949 • Little Gems - Part 1 It was date day for my wonderful wife @shendiddee and me, and it was filled with “little gems” throughout the day! 🤩 We began the evening with a wine tasting at my favorite wine store, Hi-Time Cellars @mrhitime. I did the Cabernet Sauvignon tasting and my wife enjoyed a glass of bubbly. 🍷🥂Gabe @cellarkat had a great lineup of Napa Cabernet Sauvignons in the $40 - $160 price range that included: - 1881 - Beaulieu Vineyard Tapestry - Stag’s Leap “Artemis” - Vineyard 29 CRU - Cakebread Cellars - Krupp Brothers - The Mascot - Dunn Vineyards Of all these wines, the Vineyard 29 CRU Cabernet Sauvignon stood out for me. It had a Bordeaux-like profile and at $65 it had better QPR than the other Cabernets in the lineup. Subtract the 10% discount that @mrhitime offers for wines in the tasting and buying a couple bottles of this delicious wine for $58 was a No-brainer! 🥳 The crisp Michel Turgy Blanc de Grand Cru Champagne, made with 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay grapes that my wife enjoyed, was another well priced bottle at $45 that we had to buy! 👍🏼 It was great to hang out with Gabe @cellarkat and Rylee @bottleshockt at the wine bar and to see my friends Gary @gary.faust, Todd ht_bubble_buyer, Ryan @hitimespiritguide, Toby @mrhitime, Andrea @andreapb01, Veronica @veronica_tinybubbles, Michael (not on Instagram) and many more! The tasting was great as usual, but it is the wonderful experience thanks to all my friends at Hi-Time Wine Cellars that makes me want to go back over and over again. 😍 I highly recommend visiting this “little gem” in Costa Mesa, California! Stay tuned for the next “little gem” on our date day! Cheers! 🍷 Price: Wine Tasting - $50 Experience With Wonderful People - Priceless! Please Note: This is not a paid advertisement.
